On the Possibility of Using Synthetic Diamonds to Control the Temperature of Targets in Neutron Generators
摘要
Abstract
The possibility of using synthetic diamond crystals as a sensitive element of resistive-type thermal sensors developed to control target heating in a neutron generator is discussed. Information about the design and manufacturing technology of a mock-up sample of the temperature sensor, as well as data from an experimental study of its dynamic characteristics, are given. On the example of a neutron generator developed based on a high-current accelerating diode, a scheme for thermal control of a neutron-forming target is proposed.
